In 2012 i paid 6k a yr
In 2015 i paid 12k
In 2018 i paid 18k
In 2021 i paid 23k
In 2023 it was 29k
This year is 36k.
From from 2004-2010 my plan went up about 5% a yr. After 2010, my insurance went up about 20% a year. The only difference was the ACA, and it was talked about a lot in the years. The trade off was people who could afford healthcare or has there own business should pay more to cover the subsidized people who couldn’t afford it. It actually caused a significant amount of people to take pay cuts, increased premiums, or refuse insurance and just take the tax penalty. I took the tax penalty for 2 years because i couldn’t afford the increase in rates at first. I assisted my rates i charge my customers and i was able to get back on after 2 years.
What has trump done to change healthcare prices? As far as me personally he got rid of the penalty which saved friends i know a few thousand a year. Other than that, not anything else because the prices have continued to go up faster than inflation. Biden was the same to, but the rates going up so much was probably due to covid because I’m not aware is any policies he did that would have effected the rates.
Im pro medicare for all, but im anti aca. The ACA raised my health insurance massively. I paid 6k a year in 2012, and now i pay 36k a year.
Forcing everyone to pay into for profit health insurance doubled healthcare in a few years.
The average health insurance cost per person should not be 18k a year, no one should be paying 36k a year like i do.
How much are you paying now?
My plan is 36,468 per year for kiaser HMO.
I pay monthly, $3039. It for the kaiser family plan. It’s for me, my wife, and two kids.
How much did you pay in 2015 though?
How much of your increased payment is because of Trump et al?
These are rounded to the nearest 1k.

The Trump admin, for both terms, has attacked the ACA causing the prices to skyrocket by making it harder to get coverage.
This is by design.
Premiums are up as much as 150% in places.
It’s wild you’re saying he didn’t do anything to the prices but point at presidents who attempted to sure it up.
The ACA sucks relative to the idea of Medicare for all BUT it’s not the reason your insurance costs so much.
My point is I really doubt he ran on a pro-healthcare pro-daycare platform. I could be wrong, but I would be shocked to learn otherwise.
He made statements that we’d have the money to pay for things if we didn’t go to war.
So to now say that we can’t pay for something because of war is in direct contrast.
